Bell mounted on tower of the old building of Arruda dos Vinhos city hall.
The former Arruda dos Vinhos City hall is an elegant building located next to the church. The date of construction is note precise but the tower is from the 18th century and the bell was probably mounted during the tower´s construction or little after.
The building will host the furture museum of Arruda dos Vinhos.
It´s a single bell mounted above the tower in an iron structure made on purpose for the bell. I´m almost sure that the i heard the bell when the clock stroke 3PM. I will try to confirm during my next visit.
